Your Future in Early Childhood Education

The Bachelor of Science in early childhood education program at Charleston Southern University provides students with a balance of content, practicum experiences and an integration of the liberal arts core in preparing students to teach grades K-3. The university offers students in this major the Certification Program for Grades PK-3.  

Students start practicum experiences in the first year, and by the time they enter student teaching, they have at least nine different experiences in the field. 

Prospective students should choose this program if they feel called to teach, want to learn in a Christian environment with highly skilled and experienced professors, and want to have a rich educational foundation steeped in practical and real-world experiences.
